This beautiful climber is also offered among "Specialties and Novelties," with the Moonflowers. It is also entitled to a place here as a summer flowering bulb. It forms a root as large as a Dahlia which is safely wintered in any cellar, and when planted out in the spring it commences a strong growth at once, and is really the most useful of all climbing plants, as it starts so early and grows so rapidly. Its flowers are of a satin violet crimson color, and remain open all day. This is often known as Tuberous-Rooted Monnflower. An elegant vine for conservatories or large bay wind
